My grandfather died in Poland, and his brother died in a Russian concentration camp. As a matter of fact, ALL my male ancestors (except my father - he was 12) died in the II WW. I promise you we Germans learned from this. I hope others did so, too Yours, peacefully A. Josef Sorry, guys. My grandfather died in Poland, and his brother died in a Russian concentration camp.

I know from some of his letters he was in the Hurtgen Forrest when he was killed. I also know that he had crossed the Siegfried Line at least once. That's all I know and have never been able to find anything more. From what I have read , he died in a horrible place with little or no food and no heavy winter clothing.A lot of men died there in a place of no military importance and they never received any recognition My father JT JONES was Staff Sergeant in the 12th Inf 4th Div and was killed Nov 19 1944.
